OUR CITY AND TERRITORY.

In the SilUer Dollar, published in
Cleveland, Ohio, detailed description
of Gunnison, Col, as a mining and busi-
ness centre is given, and prediction,
based upon details, is made OF future
greatness for the young city.
All the advantages claimed for Gunni-
son as a great mining center may be
claimed for Salt Lake City, and much
more on the score Of climate, mineral
springs, salt sea bathing and fruit
raising. Salt Lake has an elevation
OF 4,400 feet above the level of the
sea, 5000 less than Gunnison, and
her winters are made pleasant by the
close neighborhood Of great inland sea,
whose summer-heated waters temper the
colder air from snow clad peaks around
the city. Religious, social and educa-
tional advantages make the city desira-
bic residence place, As an ore market
and desirable point for metallurgic
works on a large scale, it surpasses any
other location west OF the Rocky Noun
tains. Capital is evidently seeking in
vestment in mining enterprises. The
vast fields of coal and iron in close con IT,
guilty here in Utah, together with large
veins and deposits OF precious metals
through all our mountain ranges, are be-
ing appreciated by capitalists and busi-
ness men. With present and prospec-
tive railway facilities, Salt Lake will be
the leading railroad center on the Pacific
Slope. Manufactures and reduction
works, iron and steel plants, car factories
and repair shops will multiply as our
mineral resources are developed, and as
the tides Of population and capital com
ing from east and west meet and ex-
pend their united energies in this city
and Territory.

THE SITUATION.

The Conference Committee has agreed
to postpone the consideration OF the
Tucker bill until the return of Collins, and
there will probably be no action upon
it before next Friday or Saturday.
Edmunds processes to be friendly to the
bill, and the only opposition to it in
the committee is made by Collins.
Mr.. Edmunds can prove his sincerity by
advocating the report OF the bill as it
passed the House. Any change what
ever will lessen the chances OF final action
upon the bill during the present session.
A motion from him to report the bill back
to the Senate without change would doubt
lesss be carried in the committee with
hut one dissenting vote. If he does this,
or even consents to that course, he will
prove himself friendly to the measure,
and to the loyal interests of the Territory
and the Nation. If he factiously insists
upon any amendment, there will be good
reason to distrust his good faith in the
entire matter. 1t is quite evident that
the Vermont Senator possesses the
power to ensure the success or perhaps
the defeat OF the bill.

A CONCURRENT resolution has been in
troduced in the Nevada State Senate
praying to Congress that the Postoflice
Department be required to carry, on all
routes where postal cars are run, gold and
silver bullion and coin OF the United
States at prices not exceeding ordinary
freight charges, on the roads where such
cars are run. The adoption of this
measure by Congress would save to the
Government large amount which is
now paid to express companies, besides
affording cheap transportation to shippers
OF bullion and gold and silver coin.

ENOCH AND EUNUCH.

The Democratic House Of Representa-
tives passed the Tucker bill. The ma
iority in either branch of Congress is
held responsible for its acts, or its defeat
OF measures. II the Democrats in the
House had voted against the Tucker bill,
or by inaction had delayed its passage,
all the dogs in Republican Hades would
have been let loose, and night would
have been made hideous with their inn
placable howls. Now the same bill goes
to the Republican Senate it is sent to
Conference Committee, days and weeks
pass by, no consideration or action is
taken, a day of hearing comes on, and
then an adjournment for week is
made. Who is responsible? Are the
Democrats responsible for this delay, for
this inaction? Have not the Republicans
a majority on this Conference Commit
tee? Certainly they have, and on their
heads rests the responsibility for delay
and inaction. If the bill is defeated, it
will be by Republicans and not by
Democrats. 1t is to be expected that the
Mormon leaders will do all in their
power to defeat the bill. They were
powerless in the Democratic House. Is
the G. Q. P, the sanity Republican
party, the only Truly Good Party on
earth, alone susceptible to Mormon in
fluence? Wait and we shall see. The
DEMOCRAT has no fears about the Presi-
dents signing the bill, but it is exceed
ingly anxious to have the Republican
Senate give him an opportunity. That's
the kind of an Enoch man we are.

A NEW DEPARTURE.

Gentle fashions are creeping into Zion.
For the first time in the history Of the
Mormon combination in Utah, en-
ployees have protested against their en-
ployers' attempt to reduce their wages,
and stand out against the proposed re-
duction. The workmen make u public
statement of their grievances which, if
true, makes good case for them. The
church organs hold up their hands in
holy horror OF this striking infringement on
the rules of the church; this ripple upon
the dead level OF the enforced oneness"
OF an ecclesiastical clique which directs
the modes and prices OF labor, as well as
the way in which its lay members shall
vote and worship. The riveters in the
big Coop. shoe manufactory are on Il
strike and there is trouble in the bee
hive. One OF these days operatives in
the Coop and on the railways which are
subject to the management OF church
men will successfully protest against the
enforced tithing OF 10 per cent. which is
extracted from them and withheld from
their monthly salaries.

The editor OF this paper received no
dispatch from Carson relative to the
death OF an ex-Treasurer OF Nevada. The
DEMOCRAT, however, received special
to that effect, which was so published in
these columns. The bungling pretense
OF morning paper to ignore the DEMO
Graf, and its roundabout method of
avoiding giving it direct credit upon all
occasions, is, ii anything, more idiotic
than contemplate.

lNTERvIEwERs are at discount, but it
is assuring to know from one OF the fra
ternity that Senator Stanford informed
him that if under the operation of the
Interstate Commerce bill 1--WE (the
Southern Pacific Company cannot run
our roads at a profit, we will be obliged
to house our engines, side track our cars,
and stop operations; but know that SO
long as l have my health l can earn a
living, and my family will not want for
bread or shelter, and after all, that is
everything that the Gar OF Russia en-
joys" Well, Stanford is a plucky fellow,
and in consideration OF his generous
action in giving his homestead to the pro-
posed university in California, if worst
comes to worst, the DEMOCRAT will do its
best to get him position as pick and
shovel-handler on the Midland Railway.

LIVE AND LET LIVE.

1t is O matter OF surprise that owners OF
productive smelling ore mines, with a
steady and reliable outcome OF ore, do
not more generally build one or more
furnaces and smelt their own ore. A
good milling ore mine usually has mill
connected with it. With but few ore
buyers in given market, the silverlead
ore producers are likely to be at the
mercy Of purchasers. The great Tele'
graph and Horn Silver mines, it is true,
expended large sums in the erection
OF smelling furnaces, which, now that
their ore supplies are cut off by the
caving and non-working OF these two
great mines, lie idle. One would sup
pose that a portion of these furnaces
could, until the mines of their owners
were reopened, be leased to good ad-
vantage to one or more OF the smaller
producing mines. Heretofore, with rare
exceptions, the mass of smaller ore-pro-
ducers have insisted that they have been
largely at the mercy OF the few buyers.
Colorado competition for time, it was
understood, broke the monopoly in
this market. An agreed division OF terri
tory, in which competing parties were to
have exclusive control, it was said, soon
put stop to competition. Custom mills
and smelters, if they are content with
reasonable profits, under good manage
ment are convenience and necessity
TO the small and casual producers in
! mining community. So they don't kill
the goose which lays for them golden
eggs, they and the goose are mutually
helpful and necessary to each other.
The mine owners can better afford to
pile their ore on the dumps, where it be-
comes by exposure easier to handle, than
the smelter owner can afford to put out
his fires and let machinery and appli-
ances go to rust and ruin. 1t is reported
that a project is on foot in this city, by
which some OF our mine owners will run
and stock smelter on their own account

ONE thing is evident, and that is the
existence in this country OF an ingrained
sympathy with and for France and
Frenchnen, inherited from our revolu-
tionary sires. The easy-fowing lines in.
scribed on one OF the badges struck of
on the occasion of Layfayette's visit to
this country in 1924, well describes the
feelings of those earlier days:
"The fathers in glory shall sleep
That gathered with thee to the fight,
But the sons shall eternally keep
The tablet of gratitude bright
We bow not the neck
And we bend not the knee,
But our hearts, Lafayette,
We surrender to thee"

Rrc NIcnI for Pollen.

An old bee keeper says that in locali-
ties where willows and hazel do not
abound it is well to feed bees with rye
meal, as it is a good substitute for pollen,
which is the main ingredient in the bee
bread, on which young bees are fed Rye
meal, when fed, especially in late springs,
stimulates brood-rearing, and enables
colonies to send out earlier and stronger
swarms. 1t should be placed in shallow
troughs or pans rod or more from the
hives, where it will soon be found by the
bees, and gathered eagerly 10y them.
No business can succeed in the long
run which does not give fair profit.
Without going wild over the reports of
the immense profits realized in a few in
stances from keeping bees, there seems
no doubt that when taken up as a regu-
lar business, and intelligcntly pursued
from year to year. it will pay a profit as
large as most other callings. Possibly,
for few years those already in the bust
ness and following it with energy, may
make a larger profit than most rural in
duStries give. But this will not continue
long. Labor and capital will flow in this
direction until profits are equalized.

At the West Point Riding Hall.

1t is accounted 'great fun" to witness
the first rides of the yearlings, so we will
go down there and laugh at their mis-
haps. Mounting the stairs to the gallery,
we look down upon large space strewn
with tanbark, at one end of which is n
row of some twenty horses with watering
brides. Soon the performers file in and
come to a halt in front of the horses. Do
they intend to ride with only a watering
bride, without even saddle or blanketl
They will try to, at all events. The
instructor commands: "Sthnd to horse! I!
Prepare to mount. Mountm. In
obedience to his command the cadets
spring, struggle, leap and kick in their
efforts to bestride their horses. The mo-
ment they are mounted several horses
develop astonishing bucking propensities,
to the anguish of their riders and the de-
light of the gallery. Now they start
around the hall at a walk. 1t seems
rather tame, doesn't itl But soon the
command, "Trotw is given, and the
| fun begins. The poor fellows bounce
/ about on the horses backs like india rub
Der boys. and wabble from side to side
/ like jumping jacks. The trot is
accelerated, the horses take the
gallop, and dash around the hall, tum-
bling their riders in heaps at the corners,
while those who by chance are still
mounted grasp frantically at their horses
names. Finally the gait is reduced to Q
walk, line is formed, the dismounted
yearlings, nothing daunted, catch then
horses and remount, and then the per-
formance is repeated. If we had visited

Soil for Plants.

Some plants, like the fuchSia, prefer
leaf mould to any other soil you can give
them, but l do not have any difficulty in
growing most kinds of plants in a COM
post, which is generally more convenient
to get at than genuine leaf mould is. 1t
is my practice to mix turfy loam-which
l get by turning over sod in old pastures,
and shaving off that part of it which Is full
of the fibrous roots of the garden
mould and manure preferably that from
yard where cows have been kept-well
together, and add sand, as l pot my
plants, putting in more or less, according
to the strength of the roots on the plant
am potting. The proportion is about one
third each of turfy matter, loan and
manure. Small-rooted plants will do
better in a soil made quite light with
sand than they will in a close and heavy
one, while roses require but little sand
in the soil they grow in, as their roots
are strong.
1t is necessary that the manure used
should be well-rotted. That which is
fresh is not good for plants, and would
sooner go without any than to nse it.
That which is year old will be so de-
composed as to crumble apart readily,
and that is the kind to use.
Most amateurs do not seem to consider
it worth while to pay much attention tc
the item of sand, but they ought to dc
so if they would grow plants well.-Ou,

FurrIer,s Collie

Furrier's collie is becoming fatal dis
ease, IL what local furrier tells me
amounts to anything. It is contracted
by working on fine furs and in inhaling
the small particles which rise from them.
These particles accumulate in the lungs
and stomach, and when once they are in
hailed it is impossible to rid oneself of
them. They arc liable to cause con-
sumption or cancer of the stomach. Said
my friend, the furrier: at is impossible
for one to work on furs over six months
at a time and not be affected. It's very
lucky for furriers that their season is not
long one. To be sure when they work
six months they receive but six months
pay, but they have chance to live
longer than they would were they obliged
to work all the year around. Brass buff.
ing is similar to working on furs. The
small particles of brass get into man,
lungs and cause an incurable disease. -
